The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are fresh off squeaking by an inferior Virginia Tech side on Saturday, as Ian Book scampered into the end zone in the closing seconds to avoid an embarrassing upset.

It was a performance that probably deserved a loss and has many pundits and fans contemplating Brian Kelly's future with the program, but the 58-year-old coach scored a massive win on Sunday.

Former Ohio State safety Isaiah Pryor has committed to transfer from the Buckeyes to the Fighting Irish.

Pryor had a plethora of schools contacting him once he declared his intentions to leave Columbus, and the man that deserves most of the credit for ND landing the 6-foot-2, 200-pound DB is the Fighting Irish's safeties coach Terry Joseph, who was reportedly the first coach to contact Pryor following his announcement.

Everybody knows how important first impressions are and that proved true with Pryor's decision, as he was clearly grateful that Notre Dame was the first school to approach him.

Pryor appeared in just three games for Ohio State this season, and will have two more years of eligibility upon arriving at South Bend. He logged 45 tackles and one interception in 29 career games for the Buckeyes.

What a get for the Fighting Irish!
